This collection of original essays presents a range of insightful excursions in short fiction theory and analysis. In this volume, leading Anglo-American and Scandinavian specialists are brought together in the study of short fiction. Compared to the novel, the short story has been an oft-neglected genre, but this book significantly expands the field of short fiction theory and analysis both geographically, conceptually and methodologically, forging new links not only between different theoretical perspectives and historical contexts but also between prose fiction and visual arts. With bibliographic references.
